I'm a city girl at heart-- a perfect day for me includes (A) walking and/or biking around, (B) a museum or two, or maybe a theatrical or other fine art performance, (C) delicious food, (D) and some beautiful vistas. In the context of one day, most of these things could only be simultaneously achieved in a larger metropolis, you know, one that actually has an opera house or ballet company, and one that has the luxury of great, classy food.
CHECK LIST:
X Walking all around Manhattan
X The Newsies on Broadway...and acrobatic street performers (totally counts!)
There was legit man-ballet happening in this show! It was very enjoyable.
X Australian (!) pies, street market kebabs & roasted corn on the cob, super posh Mediterranean food
Yes! It's Australian! They serve Lamingtons, too!
Ah, sweet nostalgia...
A little Aussie, a little Israeli- I was certainly reliving my grand adventures through eating on this trip.
X Central Park
So, yeah, pretty much a perfect day :)
I told Ian about me and Mom's tradition of handstands at Radio City Music Hall and since I was in a skirt, he decided to do the honors:
That's for you, Mom!
